Attachments

Cable Management has attachment capability that can be found throughout the application. This capability can be found at every level of your infrastructure, along with everything being tracked about your infrastructure, down to each individual component. An attachment can be added at any level to better enhance your documentation needs.

An attachment may be any file needed to better illustrate needed information about your network. These attachments may be network drawings, digital photos, MS Excel documents, MS Word documents, and more. By using this capability and using it correctly, your documentation, network drawings, photos, and all other needed files are stored in one easy-to-reach location.

Adding an Attachment

Step 1 In the Attachment area, click Add.

Step 2 In the Attachment pop-up window, click Browse to locate your attachment.

You may type specific comments within the pop-up window.

Step 3 Click OK to close the Attachment pop-up window. Once the pop-up window closes, the attachment will be located in the Attachment area with a Time/Date/User stamp on it. A message stating "Attachment successfully attached " will appear. Click OK.

Step 4 Click the Save button so all attachments and changes will be saved correctly.

If an attachment is given an identical name of one already added in the same section of Cable Management, the second attachment will not be saved, even if the first attachment has been deleted. If this occurs, choose a different name for the attachment file.

Viewing an Attachment

Step 1 Locate your attachment within Cable Management.

Step 2 Click on the View link next to your attachment. The file will launch in an HTML-formatted window.

Step 3 Close the HTML window when you have finished viewing the file.
